Hello, and thank you for completing my antique automobile survey in
December. I tabulated the results and used them in a "Family Feud"
style game at our annual dinner last weekend. It was very successful.

I have attached the survey results to this email. It is a .csv file
which can be loaded into any spreadsheet program (e.g. Microsoft
Excel). You may find the results interesting. Note that the game
requires that similar responses are worded and spelled exactly the same,
so I have done a fair amount of grouping of the responses. (e.g. "Adjust
Timing" and "Adjust Spark" are the same.)

Also, if this is something you are interested in trying with your own
group, I have made the whole thing into a computer program which you can
have for free if you wish. When we played the game, I had my laptop
plugged into a video projector so that the questions, responses, and
points were displayed for all to see.

Click on the following link to download the program. I will leave it
there for a few weeks.

The file is a .zip file. Once you have unzipped it, you will have a
Drivers Duel folder which contains everything you need. Double click
the Drivers Duel icon to run the program. You can also double click the
Drivers Duel Instructions pdf file to read and print the instructions
you'll need.

Good luck with it!
